Source: New York Times, November 28, 2011
In her review of “Open Wound,” Abigail Zuger, MD comments that in regard to describing the doctor-patient relationship, “…few efforts in recent memory lay out the frustrations and confusions and crystalline moments of grace better than Dr. Jason Karlawish’s marvelous new book…” Karlawish’s “Open Wound” is a historical novel, set in the 19th century. It follows the career of Dr. William Beaumont and his relationship with one of his patients, Alexis St. Martin.
